Mary Jane Smith - Old Weston
« on: Sunday 05 March 06 22:09 UTC (UK) »

I have Mary Jane Smith, born c. 1844 in Old Weston, marrying William Walpole in Lincolnshire in 1868.  She gave her father's name as James Smith, a farmer.  I can't find Mary Jane on the 1851 or 1861 censuses.  I've found a James Smith on the 1851, born in Old Weston in 1807.  He was farming in Barnwell St Andrew in Northants, and had 2 sons - no Mary Jane.  I'd be grateful for any help or suggestions.
